A world-class show on ice, with the very best figure skaters, thrilling artistry and also spectacular team skating at Ericsson Globe!

Among the participants we'll see Olympic champion Evgeny Plushenko from Russia, world champion Stéphane Lambiel from Switzerland and world champion pair skaters; Aljona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy from Germany. All of the above will be participating at the Olympic Games in Vancouver in February 2010....

Stockholm Ice - on Swedish Ice for the very first time!The Swedish Figure Skating Association (Svenska konståkningsförbundet) and Stockholm Globe Arenas present Stockholm Ice. The audience will experience a unique show that has never been carried out in Sweden before.

European Championships gold medalist and Olympic silver medalist in Vancouver, Evgeny Plushenko, missed the World Championships in Turin, 22-28 March, due to a tåskada. But he comes to Ericsson Globe April 2 for the figure skating ice show in Stockholm.

SVT Teletext spread the news on Friday that Plushenko miss World Cup due to injure - and that his participation in figure skating show "Stockholm Ice" would be in danger.

This speculation was rejected by his agent on Friday evening, after talks with televised sport.

- Plushenko has injured a leg and can not do himself justice in the World Cup - among other things, he can not do a quadruple. Sick leave for 14 days will not affect his participation in the Stockholm Ice Ericsson Globe on April 2. He looks forward to the visit to Stockholm, with great joy.

(Hi everybody.

I am so happy. Today I met Evgeni Plushenko - first in "Ericsson Globe" ice-'rink', in Stockholm, (yes he is already here in town). and - second (few hours ago) we met in a restaurant, together with Yana, to get something to eat.

For a long time, I have tried to get an interview with him, in connection with some writing about him. And at last it succeeded, here in Stockholm, so, I am very happy.

I was interested to know about him, to hear about his drive - which I find very unique, very special - and I think many people, could 'learn' something about it, with the intention or purpose to get inspired in life.

I have taped a great part of the interview, and I will bring it on here later - and the interview will show some new issues from his life and thoughts, some of it, he has not spoken about before.

Above, on top of all that, he promised to come to Copenhagen (my city), here once in the summer, before him going to Germany. Where we could talk about the possibilities to make a ice skating show here in Copenhagen. I promised him and Yana to show my beautiful city. But above all, I am very happy, that he and Yana invited me to visit them in their home in Saint Petersburg. That I am looking forward to - to visit them in the wintertime, in Saint Petersburg. I have been told, it should be such a beautiful city. I have never ben in that city before, only in Moscow.

So now, I am tired, but happy. I am sitting here in my hotel room, listen to some gentle music while doing some yoga exercises, and thinking of the beautiful day.
